This years h.Art week was a tremendous success with visitors travelling from as far as the USA. Victoria Westaway created a new series of Willow Peacocks as well as Owls and figures which proved popular alongside abstract works in steel wire and copper. Nestled amongst the sedums stood Victoria's willow spheres on spike which added beautiful structure to the borders of the wild garden.

hArt offers a chance for visitors to see Herefordshire artists in action and once again Victoria was delighted to demonstrate her skills over the course of the week. Not only did Victoria show others how she works, she also inspired many keen art lovers to take part and have a go.

For the second time, Arts in the Marches exhibited in the Herefordshire Open Studios event during h.Art week 12th to 20th September. Frances Warren, owner and organiser of Arts in the Marches was thrilled with the last years success, "we had a fantastic week welcoming over 800 visitors and sold many pieces. This year we're aiming to exceed our standards and deliver excellence to all our visitors and contributing artists".
